Severe insomnia following 5-meo-dmt dosing

[rolodex propaganda]

Three days ago, I dosed twice on 5-MeO-DMT. I first snorted 5mg, and smoked ~3 later that day. Before this, I would rarely take more than two or three hours to get to sleep. I would not consider myself to be an insomniac, as I can usually fall asleep within an hour. Since I have done 5-MeO though, it's been difficult, if not impossible, to get to sleep. Below are the approximated times of my sleep.

Day 1:
5pm- dose
1pm- redose
3am- get in bed
10am- sleep

Day 2:
4:00am- get in bed
12:00pm- sleep

Day 3:
4:00am- get in bed
;and i'm still awake

I've read several reports on the aftereffects, which have lasted anytime from days to years. I have to leave for class, and I won't be able to sleep again until 7:00pm tonight. This will be the second time I will have been awake for over 24 hours, the first being because of Adderal. I'm pretty worried about how long this will continue. I may or may not have been having signs of HPPD, including mild anxiety and very slight visual disturbances. These things happen ordinarily, however, and I can't tell if they have been happening more. Any relevant information would be appreciated, and I will keep you updated.

I would venture to guess that any HPPD signs you're showing are connected more with your lack of sleep then from the 5-MeO. This is a rather strange effect however, was your experience particularly deep or revelatory by any chance?

Also, the Adderall exacerbates the situation even more though you are probably right to worry about the 5-MeO. It can be terribly rough with all its blinding power...

The first dose was a successful attempt to brush just over the threshold. I "tripped" on my second dose. I did not, however, have nearly as intense of an experience as many do. Although it was definitely more intense than any other tryptamine or phenethelymine I have tried, I didn't have an OBE or black-out. If I had any revelation, it was that I have to take better care of my body by eating more and going to the gym every day like I "try" to. It's ironic I've had a hard time sleeping since.

I don't take stimulants with any sort of regularity, nor have I for several months.
